Plot Summary

In 2199, five years after the Gamilas launch attacks on Earth, the planet has been ravaged by the aliens' radiation bombs and the remnants of humanity have moved underground. One day, former pilot Susumu Kodai discovers a message capsule sent from the planet Iskandar that tells of a device that can remove the radiation from the Earth's surface. The United Nations of Space Administration rebuilds the battleship Yamato, with a new type of propulsion system - the Wave Motion Engine. This enables her to make the long voyage to Iskandar and back in hopes of saving the Earth. Within 73 days, the radiation will drive the rest of humanity to extinction and the Gamilas will inhabit the Earth. Written by Anonymous

Trivia Takuya Kimura saw Avatar (2009), and lobbied with director Takashi Yamazaki to improve the quality of the movie's VFX and reshoot them if possible. Because of the danger of going over budget, he also agreed to sacrifice part of his fee to keep the cost down. See more »

Quotes Juzo Okita: Attention, all remaining ships and battle groups. We will retreat. We no longer have a single ship that can prevail.
Mamoru Kodai: Captain Okita, this is Yukikaze, Captain Mamoru Kodai! I cannot obey your command to withdraw! I could never show my face to the friends I've lost!
Juzo Okita: Whether you agree with it or not, the withdrawal is my order, Kodai. We're all that's left to defend the Earth. A true man bears the humiliation of today for the sake of tomorrow.
Mamoru Kodai: I don't think so! Even if it's hopeless, we can still take our enemies with us! Isn't that what a man does?
Juzo Okita: Kodai! Hear my order: Withdraw!
Mamoru Kodai: I'll fight while you withdraw, Captain Okita!
Juzo Okita: Kodai, don't say such a stupid thing!
Mamoru Kodai: Captain Okita... we're proud to have fought with you.
